Wednesday
Doors open to the Westin workshop room at this time. If you haven’t already picked up your badge and registration credentials for World Congress, please do so now – and network with peers with a welcome coffee.
How to bring newsrooms into the business of news is the focus of this half-day workshop curated by Newsroom Initiative Lead Peter Bale.
Distilling key learnings from the INMA Newsroom Initiative, learn how newsrooms should be organised to work with product, data, and audience. Learn how to gain, regain, and measure trust. And learn how newsrooms can most effectively support subscription, advertising, and other business models.
How can you build strength in the newsroom? As a leader of news teams serving the world’s leading news site and broadcasting network, Rachel explains her personal commitment to lifelong learning and how that feeds into her leadership style.
What lessons can a global organisation like Reuters share on issues all news organisations face from inflation, to misinformation, cybersecurity, and even employment law. In this session Reuters Global General Manager Richard Baum talks about the threats and opportunities he sees.
Create stronger newsrooms and sustainable media organisations through crisis management. Hear stories from the frontline of change and how to cope with sudden shocks. What can news organisations learn from the experiences of travel news site Skift which had a near-death experience from the pandemic only to emerge stronger?
To wrap up today’s workshop, hear from newsroom leaders – our speakers and our audience – about how they learn from mistakes as well as successes. Get your questions ready for this great team of experienced and imaginative colleagues.
INMA will summarise the workshop and discuss where the Newsroom Initiative goes next to help you face your challenges and give you the tools and ideas you need for success.
